Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we take a look at Charleston by Design, Thursday Morning at STAIR Auction, and Dôen x Bernard. Written by Natalie Aldridge.

Charleston by Design

Mark your calendars and start planning your spring travel accordingly, because Charleston by Design will return March 12th to the 15th. Hosted by the Historic Charleston Foundation, the event brings together designers, architects, and tastemakers for a thoughtful weekend centered on craftsmanship, preservation, and the enduring influence of place.

Charleston has long been a magical city where historic architecture and contemporary life coexist. This weekend leans into that idea, inviting guests to consider how tradition continues to shape the way we design now. The festivities begin at the storied Aiken-Rhett House with an opening night celebration set within the preserved interiors of the circa-1820 house museum. Atmospheric, layered, and impossible to replicate elsewhere, it is the sort of setting that is quintessentially Charleston.

A highlight of the weekend is the Design in Mind speaker series, welcoming an impressive roster that includes Douglas Friedman in conversation with Stellene Volandes, alongside Nina Campbell, Nickey Kehoe, and Michael S. Smith. The Home & Design Tour opens the doors to private residences known for exceptional architecture and craftsmanship, while visits to the American College of the Building Arts offer insight into the future of traditional trades. Guided walks through the city’s pastel façades, ironwork, and hidden gardens serve as a reminder that Charleston itself is often the most compelling design lesson.

For those inclined toward a well-planned weekend, Insider events add another layer of charm, from a rooftop luncheon hosted by The Indigo Road Hospitality Group to cocktails at designer Michael Mitchell’s private residence. The program concludes with Art + Mimosas at the Aiken-Rhett House, a cheerful sendoff to what promises to be a memorable few days. Be sure to purchase your tickets here.

Thursday Morning at STAIR Auction

We love an auction! Beyond the thrill of discovering incredible pieces, there is the rare opportunity to own something with real history, objects that have lived full lives before finding their next home. The upcoming February edition of Thursday Morning at STAIR, hosted by STAIR Galleries, is exactly the kind of sale we’ve been itching for.

This auction includes items from the personal collection of architect Gil Schafer, whose work has come to define a gracious, enduring vision of the classic American home. The pieces are deeply aligned with the sensibility seen throughout his Hudson Valley residence, Middlefield, which Schafer shared with his wife, designer Courtnay Daniels Haden, and sold last year.

Schafer has often said he designs houses to be comfortable, understated, and built to stand the test of time, and that philosophy is unmistakable here. These are not static artifacts, but furnishings meant to be lived with, loved, and layered into evolving interiors.

The sale itself strikes an interesting balance between traditional and modern, pairing contemporary art with English and Continental furniture, Asian works of art, and silver. Provenance only adds to the intrigue, with lots tied to legendary tastemaker Jayne Wrightsman alongside club chairs designed by Markham Roberts and lots from other grand estates.

We have always believed that the most memorable rooms are collected rather than decorated, shaped over time with pieces that carry both character and story. If you admire Gil Schafer’s layered approach to design or the opulence associated with the legendary Jayne Wrightsman, this is the kind of catalog worth settling into. Consider it equal parts inspiration and temptation. The full catalog can be viewed here.

The Romance of DÔEN & BERNARD

We are huge fans of the romantic and timeless collections from DÔEN, a women-run business in California offering clothing and accessories inspired by a nostalgia of decades past. And the new fragrance from DÔEN & BERNARD is grounded in a shared sensibility that has long favored restraint, romance, and the beauty of the everyday.

The limited-edition DÔEN & BERNARD scent, Indra, offered as both a candle and a porcelain diffuser, draws inspiration from Los Angeles in bloom. Meant to evoke warm air drifting through open windows, bare feet on grass, and the kind of quiet domestic moments that are often the most beautiful, jasmine is the fragrance’s central note.

There is a natural ease to this collaboration that feels particularly appealing right now. Nothing is overstated. Nothing is trying too hard. Much like the best interiors, it suggests rather than declares. It is fragrance as atmosphere, subtle enough to live with daily and elegant enough to shape the mood of a room without overtaking it. And the package design truly stole our hearts, too.

In a moment when so much feels over-designed and over-announced, the DÔEN & BERNARD collaboration is a study in restraint. It is the kind of object that slips effortlessly into a home and a we always love a great candle moment. Click here to purchase the Indra candle and shop the rest of the exquisite DÔEN collection.

Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we take a look at Schiaparelli at the V&A, Ruggable x Scalamandré Rugs, and the James Showroom Palm Beach Pop-Up. Written by Natalie Aldridge.

Schiaparelli at the V&A

London is gearing up for a fashion exhibition that will be a must see. In spring 2026, the Victoria and Albert Museum will open Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art, the UK’s first major exhibition dedicated to the great Elsa Schiaparelli, one of the 20th century’s most visionary designers. Running from March 28th through November 1st, the show will follow the extraordinary legacy of Elsa Schiaparelli, from her Surrealist beginnings in the 1920s to the house’s present-day direction.

V&A exhibitions are always a favorite, consistently immersive and impeccably executed, and this promises to be no exception. Schiaparelli’s world lends itself naturally to spectacle and storytelling, where fashion, art, theater, and fantasy all come together. Long before “fashion as art” became a familiar phrase, she was blurring those boundaries through outlandish silhouettes, unexpected materials, and collaborations with artists including Salvador Dalí and Jean Cocteau.

The exhibition will present more than 200 objects, from couture garments and jewelry to paintings, photographs, perfumes, and archival material, positioning Schiaparelli not simply as a couturier but as a creative force whose influence extended far beyond the runway. Rather than a traditional retrospective, the show will be a richly layered exploration of how imagination, craftsmanship, and cultural converge.

For anyone drawn to the intersection of fashion, art, and design history, Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art feels destined to become one of the standout exhibitions on the 2026 cultural calendar. Tickets go on sale here February 3rd. We cannot wait to visit! Schiaparelli at the V&A!

Ruggable x Scalamandré Rugs

There are few names in American decoration that carry as much visual memory as Scalamandré, which is why its new collaboration with Ruggable feels genuinely interesting and timely. Not because it’s loud, but because it’s clever and perfectly bold.

Scalamandré patterns have long lived in the margins of our cultural imagination. They show up in rooms you remember long after you’ve left them. Translating those storied motifs into rugs feels like a natural evolution, especially when done in a way that doesn’t ask you to treat them like museum pieces. The iconic Zebras, cheetahs, and a tigers feel familiar here, but softened, grounded, and meant to be lived with.

What’s appealing is the lack of fuss. These rugs don’t demand a room be designed around them. They simply take their place and do the work. They’re an instant character builder. It’s heritage design that understands modern life. At The Glam Pad, we’re always drawn to moments where classic pieces adapt without losing their point of view. This collection manages exactly that. It’s not about reinvention but a modern take on a classic . Shop the full collection here!

JAMES Showroom Palm Beach Pop-Up

The JAMES Showroom is heading to Palm Beach! Beginning February 18th, the beloved multi-line showroom will pop up in the Casa Branca Atelier & Showroom, bringing more than 20 artisanal lines to the Palm Beach design community.

The pairing feels particularly fitting as the Casa Branca Atelier has quickly become a creative hub, celebrated for its bold patterns and spirited approach to interiors. With JAMES joining the mix, it will be a lively exchange of ideas, materials, and inspiration. If you find yourself in Palm Beach this February, plan a visit and stop in. It is the kind of pop-up that that will be especially worth the trip.

Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we take a look at Lelièvre at the Pagoda Paris, the Tuckernuck Sample Sale, and In the Garden with Little Greene. Written by Natalie Aldridge.

Lelièvre at the Pagoda Paris

During Paris Déco Off, TGP executive editor and designer Natalie Aldridge had the rare opportunity to step inside one of Paris’s most storied and secretive buildings, Pagoda Paris. Thanks to historic French fabric house Lelièvre and Galerie Vauclair, the maison opened its doors to designers, offering an intimate opportunity to experience fabrics, furnishings, and works of art in the context of the Pagoda’s extraordinary interiors.

Founded in 1914, Lelièvre has long been a cornerstone of the French decorative arts, celebrated for its technical mastery, artistic collaborations, and unmistakable designs. Throughout its history, the house has furnished private residences and institutional interiors alike, always with a reverence for craft and longevity. Presenting Lelièvre’s newest collections during Déco Off felt especially fitting within a setting so steeped in history. The collections were further elevated by Edgar Jayet’s thoughtful scenography, which brought the textiles to life without competing with the drama of the architecture.

Situated beside Parc Monceau in Paris’s 8th arrondissement, Pagoda Paris began as a Louis Philippe–style hôtel particulier before being acquired in 1925 by Ching Tsai Loo, the renowned collector and dealer of Chinese and Asian art. With architect Fernand Bloch, and under Loo’s careful supervision, the building was transformed into the Pagoda and became home to Galerie C.T. Loo & Cie. Even today, it remains one of the most fascinating buildings in Paris, its vivid red exterior and traditional pagoda style hinting at the layered world within.

Inside, the Pagoda is filled with richly detailed rooms that feel almost cinematic. Elaborate Shanxi lacquer panels, the Salle Indienne, the Salle Cavaliers, and the Petit Salon Porcelaine all pay tribute to Loo’s heritage. Rather than simply hosting a presentation, the building itself became part of the story. In a week defined by open doors and endless discovery, Lelièvre’s evening at Pagoda Paris stood apart as a moment of true immersion. Thoughtful, atmospheric, and deeply rooted in history, it was a night not to be forgotten.

The Tuckernuck Sample Sale

The Tuckernuck sample sale is here! Tuckernuck has long been a The Glam Pad favorite, so we can’t help but feel a little extra excitement when it rolls around. It’s the perfect moment to finally get our hands on pieces we’ve admired and bookmarked more times than we care to admit. Tuckernuck is polished but easy, classic without being stiff, and just playful enough to keep things interesting.

What we love most about this sample sale is the chance to revisit well-loved silhouettes, pick up something we meant to buy the first time around, or add a few wardrobe anchors that will travel nicely into spring and beyond. No reinvention required, just good, dependable design doing what it does best.

There’s also something satisfying about seeing familiar favorites resurface. A reminder that style, much like interiors, never go out of fashion. Shop the sale here!

In the Garden with Little Greene

British paint and wallpaper house Little Greene is bringing the garden indoors with its sixth collaboration with the National Trust, and it is exactly the sort of partnership we love at The Glam Pad. Rooted in heritage, stewardship, and a shared love of beauty, the new In the Garden wallpaper collection celebrates the spaces, plants, and personalities behind some of Britain’s most beloved gardens.

Drawing inspiration from Arts and Crafts florals connected to May Morris, daughter of William Morris, the storied garden rooms of Sissinghurst Castle, and even a cactus-filled greenhouse in Nottinghamshire, the collection has eight designs that feel both joyful and deeply grounded in history. Each wallpaper has been colored to coordinate seamlessly with Little Greene’s paint palette and produced using a thoughtful mix of traditional and modern printing techniques.

A portion of every roll sold supports the National Trust’s ongoing work caring for historic houses, gardens, and landscapes across the United Kingdom, making this a collaboration that feels as meaningful as it is beautiful. The In the Garden collection includes Magnolia Blossom, Castle Garden, Lily Pads, Mr. Straw’s Greenhouse, Rose Garden, and Moon Daisies. Discover the full collection here!

Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we take a look at Design Destination London,  the first annual Young Antique Dealers Association Show, and Coco Shop x Lycette. Written by Natalie Aldridge.

Design Destination London

Following the excitement of Paris Déco Off, the design world now turns its attention to London. From January 19th to the 21st, Design Destination London gives American interior designers and architects an immersive look at the city’s design scene, with access to some of its most sought after makers, studios, and showrooms.

Across three days, the program includes presentations, talks, behind-the-scenes visits, showroom open houses, and more, giving an up-close look at what really makes the London design world hum. British craftsmanship and heritage are on full display throughout the city as something living and evolving. It is a chance to see how tradition and innovation continue to coexist, particularly within the context of London.

What sets Design Destination London apart is its sense of access without overwhelm. Rather than racing from showroom to showroom, attendees are invited to slow down, engage more deeply with the trades that keep the interiors world moving, and make time for real conversation.

“It’s wonderful to see our furniture paired with Volga Linen’s fabrics and Tess’s papers and homewares. We hope visitors are inspired by the rooms we’ve co-curated. They are a perfect example of how our furniture compliments decorative schemes so well, providing a thoughtful handcrafted base for a variety of spaces,” said Alfred Newall, Furniture Maker & Founder.

This collaborative showroom presents a dialogue between three British brands whose work celebrates surface, texture and pattern using time-honoured techniques and natural materials. Weave, Grain and the Painted Line offers inspiration for layered rooms that evoke an atmosphere and tell a story.

The First Annual Young Antique Dealers Association Show

During New York’s January antiques week, a new and exciting voice will make its debut. The first annual Young Antique Dealers Association Show (YADA), presented by the Young Antique Dealers Association, will bring together a tightly curated group of emerging dealers for an intimate fair that feels thoughtful, fresh, and distinctly of the moment.

Held at the storied George F. Baker Mansion on East 93rd Street, the inaugural show will take place within one of the Upper East Side’s most beautiful historic homes. The setting is not incidental. Ornate rooms, grand staircases, and richly layered architectural details will provide a fitting backdrop for a fair rooted in connoisseurship, history, and the stewardship of historic homes.

Unlike larger, more sprawling fairs, the YADA Show will be intentionally concise. Eight emerging dealers will be invited to present, each bringing a distinct point of view across fine art, decorative objects, and design. The result will be a show that encourages discovery rather than spectacle and honors the importance of heritage.

Among the participating dealers will be Christopher Cawley, Maxim Dimitry, Peter K. Carlisle, Margot Mayer of Curio Shop, Nickolas Roudane of Teremok Antiques, Alriz Gallery, Jarrett McCusker, and Oliver Garland. Together, they will represent a generation of antique dealers deeply fluent in history yet unafraid to follow instinct, personal taste, and curiosity.

The fair will open with a VIP preview and reception before welcoming the public for the remainder of the weekend. In keeping with YADA’s mission, a portion of ticket proceeds will benefit the American Friends of the Georgian Group and support the ongoing care and restoration of the George F. Baker Mansion itself. It is a gesture that underscores the show’s larger ethos. The past is not static, but something to be actively protected, studied, and carried forward.

The First Annual YADA Show promises to feel less like a debut and more like the confident arrival of a new guard within the antiques world. It will offer a glimpse into the future of the field, shaped by younger dealers who value scholarship and beauty. If this first edition is any indication, YADA is poised to become an essential stop on the January calendar.

Tickets to the first annual show can be purchased here.

Coco Shop x Lycette

If you have been craving a little sunshine in stitched form, this one is for you. Lycette has teamed up with the endlessly chic Antiguan brand Coco Shop on a canvas collaboration that feels tailor made for winter daydreaming and resort season alike.

Launched this week, the collection is a celebration of color, craft, and tropical escapism. Think needlepoint pillows that feel right at home on a rattan sofa, playful brick covers, coasters that surely belong at a beachside cocktail hour, and more, all bringing a bit of island spirit wherever they land. There are even needlepoint canvases for Stubbs & Wootton slippers, because truly, why stop at decor when you can stitch your way into footwear too.

What makes this collaboration especially charming is its sense of ease. Coco Shop’s breezy, sun drenched aesthetic pairs beautifully with Lycette’s fun and approachable take on needlepoint, resulting in pieces that feel cheerful rather than precious. This is not needlepoint destined for a drawer or saved for special occasions. These are pieces truly meant to be stitched with a smile.

And arriving at just the right moment in the new year, as we make an effort to return to the analogue, what better way than with the centuries old pastime of needlepoint. Consider this your official invitation to lean into craft, spend an afternoon making something by hand simply because it delights you, channel a little island energy, and stitch your way somewhere warmer. Check out the full collection here!

Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we ring in the new year by taking a look at Paris Déco Off 2026, The Fabric of America, and Kips Bay Decorator Show House Palm Beach. Written by Natalie Aldridge.

Paris Déco Off 2026

Next week marks the return of Paris Déco Off, a moment when the interiors world once again turns its attention to Paris. Whether you will be in the city wandering between Left and Right Bank showrooms or following along from afar, it is one of the most anticipated periods of the year for design discovery.

For several days, time-honored ateliers and emerging studios alike open their doors, giving a rare look at new collections, reimagined classics, and the evolving world of interiors, craftsmanship, decoration. Heritage houses present fabrics, wallcoverings, furnishing, and more, while newer voices introduce fresh techniques, materials, and ideas that guide where the industry is heading. Streets glow with lanterns, salons buzz with conversation, and Paris comes to life with designers from across the globe.

At its best, Déco Off is less about spectacle and more about curiosity. With so much new to discover in such an inspiring city steeped in history, one cannot help but to be fully immersed into the magic that is Paris and the ever evolving interior design world. We’ll be watching closely and sharing the moments and makers worth noting!

The Fabric of America

Marking the United States’ 250th birthday, the Washington Winter Show returns from January 9th to the 11th, with this year’s edition devoted to “Celebrating 250 Years of the American Home, Here and Abroad,” a theme exploring how American design has evolved and influenced both domestic interiors and the global decorative landscape.

A highlight of this year’s program is Schumacher’s exhibition, The Fabric of America, which traces the iconic design house’s profound role in shaping American interiors over more than a century. Founded in New York in 1889, Schumacher has long been woven into the fabric of American design, from early commissions for the White House to enduring patterns that have defined generations of homes. Drawing from the brand’s extensive archive, the exhibition presents textiles and wallcoverings that reveal how pattern, craft, and innovation have quietly narrated American life.

In honor of the milestone year, Schumacher will also introduce three new collections celebrating America’s legacy, blending archival designs reimagined for today with entirely new introductions set to debut this summer. At The Glam Pad, we are especially excited to see America’s 250th reflected through craftsmanship, history, and a distinctly forward-looking design sensibility.

Also not to be missed is the Saturday, January 10th panel, “Cultivating Spaces: The Art of Design, From Coastal to Classic,” featuring Amanda Lindroth and Russell Windham, moderated by FREDERIC Style Director Eugenia Santiesteban Soto. The Schumacher exhibition is included with show admission, making it a timely and thoughtful stop during Washington Winter Show weekend.

Kips Bay Decorator Show House Palm Beach

The Ninth Annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House Palm Beach is officially taking shape, and this year’s edition just may be one of the most exciting yet. Opening to the public on February 25th, the show house will run for a month-long season of high design in the sunshine.

For the first time ever, two neighboring properties will be transformed in tandem. The Intracoastal House at 3410 North Flagler Drive and the adjacent Palm Cottage, both located in West Palm Beach’s Northwood Shores neighborhood, will serve as expansive canvases for this year’s designers. With an expanded footprint, the show house is poised for a richer, more layered experience, inviting a greater sense of discovery as designers take on two distinct homes and craft interiors that feel both cohesive and delightfully individual.

This year’s incredible of designers and architects include Alexander Interiors, Amy Young Designs, BAMO, Inc.. Bell Design, Inc., Colleen Rosar Design, Danielle Balanis Design, EERDMANS, Firefinish Interiors, Justin P. Moreland Interiors, Kate Ives Design, Lisa Erdmann Interiors, Lopez Group Inc., Lori Morris Design, LTA Interiors, Pappas Miron Design, River Brook, Sherrill Canet Interiors, Sire Design, Steven Walsh Design, Tartan & Toile, The Lewis Gallo Design Group, Wecselman Design, Yarn Design Associates.

As always, Kips Bay Palm Beach pairs beautiful interiors with a meaningful mission, benefiting the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County. We’ll be following along as the houses come to life and sharing the rooms, details, and design moments.

Make sure to purchase your ticket here to visit the show house.
